They understood it was a virus/scam but were worried about it showing they had 43 viruses. Well, I pulled up some info on it, found some screen shots, and what do you know? Every single screen shot also showed the people had 43 viruses. They finally understood what was going on. BTW, this was the second Antivirus 2008 infection I saw in the last 30 days. Speaking of reformatting, I am fixing to do my laptop again. But somewhere around here I have an unused copy of Acronis True image I want to dig out before I do it again. You ever use that?
